Lisa O'Neill has been booked for Sit Down Lucy, who showed real promise at Down Royal in March and probably needed her run at Cork a month ago. Aine O'Connor was on board when PATTY D was beaten a length in what looked a decent Wexford bumper in October. Her mount was well supported that day after a couple of runs over hurdles a year ago and, with a stronger pace likely here, can go one better. Granny Lowrie gained a surprise victory in a very moderate 2m4f Kilbeggan maiden hurdle in August so it's unusual to see her in a bumper while Emily Roebling took advantage of mishaps to rivals when scoring at Turtulla last month.
